CLEVELAND, Tenn. — Ocoee Middle School is nearly ready to open a cardiovascular fitness room to students and faculty.
“It will be a dream come true if we can have it ready when the students come back from Christmas break,” Principal Ron Spangler said.
Spangler said that, except for some flooring, all the essentials already are on site. Planned exercise stations will include eight spin bikes, two rowing machines, a Wii fitness game and the fitness video “Dance Dance Revolution.”
The cardio room is part of Bradley County Schools’ pilot program for its PE4Life initiative.
“PE4Life teaches skills for physical activity for an entire lifetime,” said Andrea Lockerby, consolidated school health coordinator for Bradley County Schools.
